The erythema, thickness and scaling of co-existing psoriasis plaques in patients with GPP were assessed by two independent dermatologists who were unknown of IL36RN mutation status. Twenty IL36RN c.115 + 6T > C mutation positive patients and 20 mutation negative patients were included for paired analysis. We found that compared with IL36RN mutation negative group, more IL36RN mutation positive patients had erythema or thickness subscore ≦ 2 (p = 0.0407, 0.0202). The clinical, therapeutical and pathophysiological implications of the findings remain to be studied. © 2024, CC BY.enerythemageneralized pustular psoriasisIL36RNplaque-type psoriasisscalingthicknessother10.21203/rs.3.rs-3804347/v1http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-85184830583&partnerID=MN8TOARS
